Sauce and the other victim were outside a vehicle when the suspects pulled up with multiple people inside and began opening fire. Law enforcement says there was no conversation between either party before or during the shooting. The suspects fled in a four-door white vehicle from the downtown area.

Police do not believe this was a random act and say this was absolutely a targeted attack on Sauce Walka and the other victim.

We broke the story … Sauce was sh()t in the leg and is currently in the hospital — but he should make a full recovery. Another unidentified man who was with Sauce died from the injuries he sustained in the shooting. His name has not been released.
